It is very easy to use our project if anyone wants. Just follow the steps :
-
Firstly if you are working locally then you need to install the following :
- Node.js
- MongoDB
- VS Code ( recommended , Any other suitable code editor will work )
-
Next you need to clone our project's GitHub repository to your desktop
-
Open command line navigate to the project folder. Then type the following commands to install required dependencies :
npm install --save
-
Your package.json should look like this with the following dependencies
"dependencies": { "bcryptjs": "^2.4.3", "concurrently": "^6.0.0", "cors": "^2.8.5", "express": "^4.17.1", "jsonwebtoken": "^8.5.1", "mongoose": "^5.12.2", "node-windows": "^1.0.0-beta.5", "nodemailer": "^6.5.0", "nodemon": "^2.0.7", "util": "^0.12.3"}

Finding a unique/novel idea: Finding a novel and innovative idea for a hackathon as allways been a tough job . Developing an idea into a project is the next hell . We made our way through brain storming hrs to land were we are right now.accept
-
Choosing the right library: There are huge number of libraries for any job to get done . Finding the one suitable to your coding style and motive is a difficult task . We went through some awesome libraries to figure out what is best for the application on the basis of performance and being robust.
-
Tricky State Management: Managing state throughout a huge application considering the local state , global state and function calls has been a challenge. We invested a huge amount of time figuring out how to make it work properly and efficiently.
-
Interchange of data in MongoDB : Interchanging data through the UI and database simultaneously for the user as well as for the company at the same time . We ran into a call back hell and dealt it with some new methods to tackle the same.
-
Using authentication feature : This was one of the most important features of our adds project. We had to ensure no two users can have same username, each profile is identified by a unique id, users cannot see adds without logging in and so on. For this we used jwt token which provides simple, unobtrusive authentication for Node.js. Also its great documentation helped us incorporate it properly in our project.
-
Non-availability of members at one location : Due to current Covid-19 crisis our team was working on this project from three different locations. This was quite difficult in many occasions but still we coordinated well with each other. We were constantly in touch with each other over phone and updated the developments of our project on GitHub. and live share.
Although we have tried our best to make our application robust and secure, errors might have crept in. If you have any ideas, just open an issue and tell us what you think.
